15 Ways You Can Use Rosemary Oil Today

Rosemary is one of my most favorite essential oils! I love the fresh smell and I use it in all of my home made cleaning recipes to keep my house smelling like spring. It's such a versatile oil and here are 15 ways you can start using it in your home today!

Respiratory Aid - Rub on your chest every couple of hours to aid with chest congestion and cough. Diffuse for sinusitis and nasal congestion.

Memory/Focus - Diffuse to stimulate memory, focus and inspiration

Antiseptic - Rosemary has antiseptic qualities and can be used on scrapes, cuts and even in mouthwash!

Pain Relief - Use topically, diluted with fractionated coconut oil to ease headache and muscle pain, use in the bath to soak tired achy muscles.

Hair Health - add to coconut oil to use as a conditioner for your hair or rub into the scalp for a stimulating massage. Rosemary is said to stimulate hair growth so use on areas you want to grow more hair.

Increase Circulation - Great for stimulating circulation in legs and energizing the body

Anit-inflammatory - use topically to reduce inflammation on sore joints.

Antiviral/Antifungal - Use in your cleaning recipes to help disinfect and sanitize. I add 8 drops to an 8 oz spray bottle. Try combining with lemon and melaleuca for a powerful disinfecting combo.
